I have a recert coming up, and while I can probably already have the CE's documenting them is going to be a pain in the butt because of how my medical school posts syllabi.
I also need the 24 hour refresher class which I'm not sure I can attend at this time due to my clinicals for school. I know there is a recert option to challenge the test, and I was wondering if there were any people who routinely go this route.
I have a Bachelors in Biomedical Engineering, 1 year of grad school, and I'm currently a medical student so I figured that I could just show up and test without preparation, but many of my colleagues at the firehouse aren't so sure this is a good idea. I figure that I passed the first time in 15 minutes, so if I just show up and take the test with my, at this point, 5 years of experience, I should be ok. Yes I know that there are NREMT questions that are out to get you that only apply to the test and not in the field, but I figured those can't make up enough questions to cause me to fail can it?
Any thoughts as to whether I should actually study or just go in and take the test? (Or go sit through the 24 hour refresher course?)
Thanks,
